With a consumer adhesion contract, most jurisdictions routinely refuse to enforce the choice-of-jurisdiction clause on the grounds of fairness and reasonableness; logically, there is no reason that a corporation which does business in all fifty states should be able to drag a consumer across the country (literally across the country, in this case) in order to settle a legal dispute.
I'm pretty confident this suit is going to get thrown out for lack of jurisdiction. The real question is if Sony's going to bother renewing it in the proper venue.
